6.1.15 | Wayland, NY | The Gunlocke® Company continues to expand its presence in the southwest with the addition of Christine Woodard as a Business Development Manager based in Dallas, where the contract furniture manufacturer opened a new showroom last year.

In her new role, Woodard will facilitate sales growth in the North Texas and Oklahoma markets. She joins Michael Banning, a longtime Gunlocke sales professional who also serves as Business Development Manager in the region. Both Woodard and Banning report to Mark MacPhee, Division Manager for the South Central region.

Prior to joining Gunlocke, Woodard worked as National Sales Manager and Vice President for Harden Furniture in the Contract Division. She served as Regional Sales Manager for Steelcase in Northern Florida. Woodard also was President/Principal of Woodard Associates, a company that represented eight international furniture, lighting and textile companies.

Woodard holds an Associate of Science in Business Administration from Corning Community College and attended Empire State College, where she majored in marketing.

Last summer, Gunlocke opened a new showroom at 150 Turtle Creek Blvd., Suite 104E, in Dallas. The 2,900-square-foot showroom, housed in a former art gallery, provides a unique setting to showcase Gunlocke’s products to the southwestern A&D and office furniture dealer sectors. Both Woodard and Banning are based out of this new showroom.
